I'm guessing they are throwing Wheeler. If we can get to him early, i got to imagine their bullpen is gassed.

Agreed! Put it away in 6. Don’t let it go 7.

I think Pena has moved up as the frontrunner for MVP, for me. Partially dependant on how Framber does Saturday.

Don't take this lead for granted! Put them away now! No jinx, but: Any safe streets to drive down and celebrate with fellow Houstonians? I remember Richmond in the 90s when the Rockets won. Everyone was driving up and down cheering and honking. It seems like any congregation now, gunfire erupts.

If Framber pitches us to a win, I think the MVP is down to Javier, Pressly or Abreu. Depending on who relieves him

Pfft, you know you have it tattooed on the small of your back. It’s not tattooed on the first so I could still forget. I wouldn't be averse to signing Carlos for 3yr/$70M to man LF for us if the other moves y'all want don't pan out

So going into Game 6, here is a quick update on the series MVP candidates if we win:
Altuve: .318 AVG .757 OPS 4 Runs 1 SB Bregman: .222 AVG .919 OPS 1 HR 4 RBI 4 Runs Pena: .381 AVG 1.028 OPS 1 HR 3 RBI 4 Runs Yuli: .316 AVG .718 OPS 1 RBI 1 Run 1 SB Tucker: .222 AVG .897 OPS 2 HR 5 RBI 2 Runs
If Framber comes out and has another ace-level start he'd be a contender. And if Pressly comes out with another great relief appearance he'd be a contender.

Lineup preferences for Game 6 if it's me:
If Yuli is okay:
Altuve 2B Pena SS Yordan DH Bregman 3B Tucker RF Gurriel 1B Mancini LF Vazquez C McCormick CF
I don't like them pulling Yordan for a defensive replacement and us losing his bat (slumping or not) if we go into extra innings.
If Yuli is not okay:
Altuve 2B Pena SS Yordan DH Bregman 3B Tucker RF Mancini 1B Vazquez C McCormick LF Dubon CF
Diaz has zero value to me. At least an OF of Dubon and Chas will be very good defensively, and Dubon can make contact. I can't watch another Diaz 0-4 with 3 Ks game.
